HARDDON: Mr Seun,

why are the rules always popping up any time one wants to create a thread or post a reply?

are there no rules' threads on every section again?

we should be as user-friendly as possible and not string complex at other' expense.

and if you havent noticed, nobody's got the time to go through all that ish b4 they can make their mind known.

I do believe this is a temporal thing and should be removed hereafter.

NB: it is not all time one has access to a system with larger screen. some of us work on smaller-screened mobile devices too

Regards

H. D

Angyee:


Seun, don't 'Strike Down' rule 17. Instead, edit it. It should be re-instated and read something like this:

17. Don't post anything that could be considered offensive to any religion or ethnicity. Nairaland aims to promote tolerance not division.

'Chikena' 'O ton' 'Ogwuchala'.


Also, rather than rules always coming up, Sit down, research other forums and come up with a standard set of rules and put that up. And like another forum I am on does, then advise anyone who joins to please read those rules before posting, that way you don't have to keep going back and forth. And if any one has an issue, you refer them there.

Like Confucius said, 'Life is really simple but we insist on making it complicated.
When a smart and composed person speaks, it is so easy to notice. If he is a wise person, he would listen to your opinion and even seek further advice.

outrage: [size=13pt]Why not add other religion.
It is obvious others don't care how their religion is spoken about on this forum, since they are thanking you for removing it, instead of modifying it to suit every religion.


Just incase you haven't noticed muslims can't insult or talk bad about christain believes like insulting jesus/moses/adam etc. Usually when they talk bad about the religion, its on a personal level.

But on the other hand chirtains and other religion insult and talk bad about our prophet muhammad (saw) and islam in general. That is very unacceptable.

I know I can't say much to change your mind seun, but muslim MODS this is your responsibility, its on your shoulders to see that the religion of islam is protected on this forum to the best of your knowledge.

You got out cries that it was unfair to the christains for the rule number 17, its unfair to muslims to strik it out. I believe since its a democratic enviroment, we should meet at the middle.

Personaly I don't talk bad or look down on any persons believes, you can go through my comments and confirm. But I know everybody can't be the same, hence that's why we need rules.


Please seun, be fair to islam..[/size]

What is rule 17?
Re: Striking Down Rule 17 by nerodenero: 4:02pm On May 09, 2013
It shows that with unity among the people,there is no limit to what can be achieved.Now Mr.Seun will know that Nairalanders made nairaland and not him.Without us,there is no you!Above all,you did well for withdrawing that biased Rule 17.

Please seun, be fair to islam..[/size]

And what really is your problem?

What is be 'be fair to Islam?'

Who was dark to it before?

If not that you are a religious bigot, why didn't you say 'be fair to all religions?'

A quick question: How does bashing Islam/Christianity on Nairaland affect it in the real world?

Get a grip!

kasheemawo: @ seun,this is the reason why rule 17 has to stay,some ppl like this instigate crises and i believe sane Muslim will never abuse any religion belief.to me i will rather allow u to abuse my parent than to allow u ridicule my prophet.


We have to defend our faith and our beliefs against falsehood by presenting the truth. It does not make sense when we try to defend a God or try to save his reputation. The worst we can do to someone who blasphemes our God or His Prophet is to hand him over to God for an instant judgment as Paul did on d Island of Paphos when a false prophet and sorcerer,Elymas,tried to prevent d chief of the Island from being converted.Paul issued an instant judgment against him in the name of Jesus and Elymas received instant blindness.Act 13: 6-12.God defended His Word.

A God that needs to be fought for by weak human beings ceases to be Almighty God.
If Allah is God and Muhammed was a true prophet,any muslim trying to defend His reputation is incuurring the wrath of God upon themselves.Becos it is like saying, "Oh,Allah is helpless and I must do something or not allow anything offensive to his reputation,if not his reputation will crumble.
Very absurd.

Muhammed is dead,no amount of bad or good word you issue against him can prosper.
The Bible says ,anyone who curses Abraham shall be cursed and anyone who blesses Abraham shall be blessed. How much more God and His Prophets,if actually the prophet is not of the devil.

If you like curse Jesus,it does not affect the truth about him,neither would it annoy me. You can even take it further by cursing God,I will only feel sorry for you,because I believe u do not know what u are doing.But not to the extent of getting angry with you.If He is God,He will defend Himself.

It is ignorance of the highest order to think we must fight and kill other human beings to defend our God.

You can believe ur prophet,but it is compulsory to respect ur parents,if not ,you cannot live long in life.
The is a Biblical fact.

Finally,for the sake of peace in this nation,we must tolerate other people's beliefs and religion.

redundant if you ask me. what happened to the rules and regulation threads on each section?

besides none of these would change anything(almost all the rules have been broken right here on this thread already) the internet is the internet.....

nonetheless, if you must keep them hanging there, good luck to you
